I was gifted this cactus without knowing much about them, it’s survived perfectly well for alt least 2 years, had 4 pillars, but all have rotted and died! What happened and is there a way for the root system to survive? TIA!

Hi all, I have my beloved Lisa here. I was about to give her her scheduled watering when I saw this fuzzy stuff appearing on the top of her soil. She's quite new and still in her nursery pot. Is this a cause of concern and, if so, what should I do?

Hello All, this is my first time trying to grow more veggies. Got two 4x8 raised garden beds and getting started in Dallas Area. We have these 3 zucchini and yellow squash plants that have some discoloration in their leaves. Some large leaves on the plant have it while others don’t. Any ideas? Is it bad or what to do?

Brand new plant. Just had it a week. I left it in its original soil and pot because I bought it from a very reliable nursery and figured I wouldn't shock it right away. However, now that leaf is turning black and drippy. Those are actual water droplets at the bottom of it! I'm thinking I should cut off the leaf and change the soil. Sound right?

Why is my bunny ear cacti wobbly it’s the one closest to the flash light. Thanks!

Is this normal for a baby monsterra ?

I’ve had this Jade plant for over a year and she hasn’t been watered as much as she should have been and now she’s suffering a bit. Is there any way I can bring her back?

Keep or pitch? Idk what’s wrong with her, I’ve dried her out, I’ve kept her moist, I’ve even put her on a watering schedule. And ideas?!?

Hi plant peeps, I wonder if anyone can help. This is my sister's Calathea and she's not very happy as you can see. Does anyone know what the problem could be please? The leaves have totally collapsed and some have browned and died completely. In the hope of rescuing her, I added it on here and let her know when to water and mist etc and it has perked up a little bit. That is sand you can see on top of the soil to prevent fungas gnats. Any advice at all would be great and appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just got these philo cuttings from my grandma (going to pot soon) but I noticed these spots on a few of the leaves and wasn’t sure what they were. Pests of some kind? Rot caused by water/sun/nutrients/etc? Just wanted to check if I need quarantine her or not.

Help! These tiny white spots are everywhere. I thought powdery mildew, but I'm not sure. Several of my plants have died or become unhealthy since it showed up. Now I'm seeing it on my seed starts. Also, there are little bugs flying around. They look like gnats, but i dont think they are. Any advice would be super helpful.

Hi!! Im a new plant owner and I have a Calathea as one of my plants. I’m unsure if it’s dying or getting too much sun, something in me is telling me that I probs did something wrong to my plant. The top leaf has a hole forming and the bottoms ones are abit flappy. Any advice or pointing what looks off on the plant is welcome!!😊

Hi! I recently bought a baby Monstera and when I brought her home she was just fine but now the leaves are not okay and I know almost nothing about them. I am fairly certain there are no bugs but if you think otherwise just lmk! Also the soil does not seem to soak up water and I don’t know how to fix that! I do think it needs a repot but I can’t afford well draining soil at the moment so I would love to know what I should do for my baby to get her back to fell health!

My Stromanthe Triostar is getting dryness on the tips of the leaves. What could be causing this?

I've been noticing white millipedes (garden symphlans per google?) in a few of my plants. The sites I've looked at say it's usually due to a moisture problem, but it seems like if I water any less than I am my plants wilt and my spider plant loses color. I'm wondering if I need to repot them in soil with more drainage? So far the plants I've noticed them in are all from the same shop, but I've repotted one of them and it still has the same problem. I also read these bugs aren't necessarily harmful, but I'm not a big fan of seeing them in my houseplants 😬

i’m totally new to the fern world but i grabbed this guy for $4. He hasn’t been repotted but he was watered recently and his roots looked fine. I added perlite to the bottom of the nursery pot because it was straight soil and hard to break up without hurting the delicate roots. Once it dries out more i’ll repot with something thicker. Additionally I want to get a semi-closed glass container to keep up some humidity but not too much. Any recommendations will help. I thought the fuzziness was similar to a velvet alocasia in that it STAYS ON. Apparently not. I sprayed and wiped with Neem oil and it started coming off.. so I stopped and dabbed up any excess. Driving it home I noticed a weird smell coming from it. Is it like a normal fern smell? I didn’t see any rot so I’m confused. Any tips or info is welcome. TIA

I just potted my golden pothos, it was in a little cup with water for many months. Its been almost a week and the base leaf id starting to weaken and turn yellow (not the regular golden part) anyone know what i could have done wrong?

I repotted my rubber plant because I thought he needed more space. However ever since then he has become droopy, losing leaves and his leaves have become really really soft droopy and not thick and hard like before. He still gets the same amount of light (12hr grow light) and I follow his watering schedule. However I started to notice that when I water him the water drains like normal but if I dig further into the soil it stays dry. No matter how much water I give him the water drains out normally but the soil especially around his stems/roots remain dry. I’ve squeezed his pot to break up the soil but there’s still a lot of soil that remains dry. Did I give him way too much space? Please help he is my first baby and I don’t want him to die :(!!!!! I haven’t changed the type of soil or water (distilled water) so I am so confused!!

I recently got a jade succulent about 2 weeks ago, I’ve watered it and have been putting it in my window sill during the day can anyone tell me why the leaves are dying? I looked it up on Google and it says it could be sunburn because jade plants are “indirect sun” plants meaning sun but not too much I’m guessing, anyways I just want to confirm because I do have a spot for it that has sun just not as much because it really does look like the leaves are just frying and getting burnt. Also can anyone tell me what I should do in this situation? I’m going to reposition it and if those brown leaves don’t get better, would it be best for me to pluck them off and start new or will they eventually revive themselves when they get into a better spot. Any replies would help a lot and I am first time plant owner so I’m just kinda freaking out cause I don’t want it to all go down! Thank you guys so much again and any criticism or help is greatly appreciated!!

Question for Mystic Palm. I travelled away from home and forgot to give him water before I left. Came back and watered immediately but the leaves look dried up and sad. They aren’t completely brown yet. Do you think these fronds can get better or should I cut some off?
